I suspect its something more banal.

I believe intel does distribute test/beta microcode to certain partners, and likely security researchers, this kind of statement is something you would put in a beta version, I wonder if someone simply used the wrong license file when they deployed this to the website.

This story has been out for days, if such a thing was at play Intel would have put out a statement by now.
